Measurement Error, Manipulation, and the Value of Short‐Term Performance in Job Retention Erreur de mesure, manipulation et valeur de la performance à court terme en matière de maintien de l'emploi

Contemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper studies how the accuracy of a short‐term performance measure affects its value when a principal decides whether to retain or fire an agent, who can manipulate that measure. Compared with ignoring performance and never firing the agent, the performance measure is valuable when the savings in the expected cost of the retention error ...

Yardstick competition under fiscal and administrative asymmetries: Rent‐seeking and local cooperation

Annals of Public and Cooperative Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper develops a two‐period model to investigate how fiscal and bureaucratic asymmetries shape yardstick competition (YC), inter‐municipal cooperation (IMC), and rent‐seeking in local public service provision. Unlike previous approaches, we allow incumbents to invest in bureaucratic efficiency, influencing both service quality and ...

The Seven Design Principles for Co‐Creating Health Information Visuals for People With Learning Disabilities

British Journal of Learning Disabilities, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background People with learning disabilities often face significant challenges in understanding health information. Pictorial supports are widely assumed to improve communication for people with learning disabilities, yet little research examines how visual communication can be effectively designed for this group.

Bayesian inference for dynamic Q matrices and attribute trajectories in hidden Markov diagnostic classification models

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Hidden Markov diagnostic classification models capture how students' cognitive attributes evolve over time. This paper introduces a Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for diagnostic classification models that jointly estimates time‐varying Q matrices, latent attributes, item parameters, attribute class proportions and transition ...

Latent Poisson count models for action count data from technology‐enhanced assessments

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advances in computerized assessments have enabled the use of innovative item formats (e.g., drag‐and‐drop, scenario‐based), necessitating a flexible model that can capture systematic influence of item types on action counts. In this study, we present a refinement scheme that can explicitly model common features of items and allows ...
